Dungeness crab migration along the coast and movement in and out of bays and estuaries has been studied by Cleaver (1949) in Washington, Waldron (1958), and Snow and Wagner (1965) in Oregon. Tagged crabs were recovered up to 133 miles from the point of release and a free interchange between...
The State Police in Astoria informed the Fish Commission on October 12, 1970, that some 100 crab pots were in the ocean in 3-10 fathoms of water near Cannon Beach. This is about 23 miles south of the Columbia River within the 3-mile limit. According to one local crab fisherman,...
Fish Commission of Oregon personnel seined selected locations of Tillamook Bay, Oregon, from June to September 1972, to determine if juvenile salmon were rearing in the estuary and to get some concept of relative numbers of fish in the various parts of the bay. These data then could be compared...
The interest in collecting hydrographical data on Salmon River began as part of a generalized search for suitable hatchery sites on coastal streams in 1967. Because of the realization that the Salmon River did have significant potential for a hatchery, additional data have been collected in the intervening years. A...
The recent increase in energy prices and political instability in the Middle East has sparked renewed interest in alternative energy sources and technologies both locally and nationally. Biodiesel is an appealing transportation fuel source for many reasons: it readily substitutes for petroleum diesel, it tends to burn cleaner with fewer...

Grain is produced on about 100,000 acres in the Klamath Basin and 60,000 acres within the Klamath Reclamation Project. Susceptibility to late spring frosts has historically limited winter cereal production and spring cereals have accounted for the majority of production. Starting in 2003, a significant shift to production of hard...
Grain is produced on upwards of 100,000 acres in the Klamath Basin, including nearly 50,000 acres within the Klamath Reclamation Project. Susceptibility to late spring frosts has historically limited winter cereal production and spring cereals have accounted for the majority of production. Starting in 2003, acres seeded to winter wheat...
